Best Albacore Tuna Muffins Recipes

ALBACORE TUNA MUFFINS

Steps:

• 1. Cut up all your veggies. Drain your tuna and place in a bowl and flake the tuna with a fork.
• 2. Then, add your veggies and seasonings and mix it all together. Now, crack your egg and whisk it well and then add to your mixture.
• 3. Scoop into a greased muffin pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees. [You could make these into mini muffins and serve as appetizers too.] I am not sure on the time they would have to cook though. Next time, I will try it and add the info here.
• 4. Remove muffins from tin and add a little more cheese and some herb for garnish.
• 5. I served my muffins with a cucumber salad.
• 6. Herbes de Provence: It is a spice mixture that you can buy at most grocery stores. It has rosemary, fennel, savory, thyme, basil, tarragon, dill weed, oregano, lavender, chevril, and marjarom.

• Combine tuna and mayonnaise in a bowl. Add the sauteed mixture from the frying pan and blend well with a fork.

• Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.

ENGLISH MUFFIN TUNA MELTS

Steps:

• Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or foil, for easy clean-up (optional). Place the halved English muffins cut-side-up on top. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Put the English muffins in the oven while it preheats, to toast them up a bit.
• Meanwhile, mix the tuna salad. In a medium bowl, mix canned tuna (flake apart with a fork first), diced celery, green onion, sweet relish (1 tablespoon), mayonnaise (½ cup), and salt and pepper to taste.
• Take the English muffins out of the oven. Spoon the tuna salad on top of each English muffin half evenly, pressing down on the top with the back of your spoon to pack it on a bit. Place a slice of cheese on top of each. Put back in the oven at 425 degrees F for about 10 minutes, until cheese is melted on top and starting to brown in places.
• Garnish with the remaining dark green sliced onions and serve.

Steps:

• Combine the soy sauce, mirin, vinegar, ginger and sugar in a bowl and whisk together well. Whisk in the sesame oil.
• Place the albacore steaks in a large bowl or baking dish and toss with the marinade. Cover the bowl, or transfer the fish and marinade to a large zip-top bag and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, or longer.
• Prepare a hot grill, or heat a heavy cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the fish from the marinade. Cook the steaks for 2 to 4 minutes on each side, depending on how well done you like the fish to be. Serve hot.
